[QUOTE="Innovative, post: 368113, member: 527"] jesse1004 ....... Try using a case like this. I make a sample round (with a slotted neck) to hold the bullet, and I use it like you described to locate the rifling. The chamber pushes the bullet back when it contacts the rifling. [CENTER][IMG]http://www.larrywillis.com/OAL-3.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] [LEFT] After carefully extracting the sample round, I set it on our Digital Headspace Gauge. It's designed to locate chamber clearance (at the shoulder), but it can also measure your bullet "jump" to the rifling. [/LEFT] [CENTER][IMG]http://www.larrywillis.com/OALPIC.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] [LEFT] Just "zero" the gauge, and it's calibrated to your rifle. When you set your handloads on the gauge, it displays how far behind the rifling your bullet is seated. This example shows the bullet is seated -.002" behind the rifling. - Innovative [/LEFT] [CENTER] [/CENTER] [/QUOTE]
